What they and all such should do is
to live moderately and exercise freely.

iris Should be Useful.
the Harrisburg Independent.

From the Harrisburg Independent.
There is large class OF Americana
people OF opulence, men OF acquired
or inherited wealth. who do not hes
itate to inculcate the belief am on,
their Children, and especially thei
daughters, that it is useless and un
necessary for them to learn to do
anything useful in connection with
domestic manual labor. 1t is no un'
sommon expression in the higher
circles OF society for ladies to declare:
"My Husband" or "my father is rich;
why, then, should l demean myself by
manual labor" In such Society" il
is deemed vular for lady to know
how to do useful thing in connection
wibh housekeeping. Parents in these
cases rear their daughters not to learr
to do the useful, and many mothers
whose husbands are under hard
strain every day in the year to find
the wherewlth to keep up appearance
impress their daughters with the idea
that labor is degrading, and that
hand which shows any sign OF manual
labor will not be sought in marriage
by gentleman. We confess we do
not know how true this is. II it is
correct, then indeed it is evidence OF .
lack of manhood; and, if it is not true
is wicked libel on the character oil
an American gentlemen.
Girls who won't learn to do useful
things at home because their fathers
are rich, lose opportunities to fit
themselves to meet the eXigencies and
accidents OF life. 1t has always been
the custom for the princes OF Ger
many to learn trades. The bourbon
princes of France all Acquire trades.
Some OF them were printers, book.
binders, shipwrights, house carpenters
joiners and painie rs; they did not fol.
low these vacations, but they under.
stood them. Royal and princely
ladies in Germany and France under
stand every function of housekeeping,
and know how to perform it.
They can go to the dairy and stable
and handle milk or q COW and horse
with dexterity and satisfaction. The 4
Prince of Wales is a bookbinderJ
Each OF his brothers has trade, and
his sons are now learning trades, ac-
cording to their tastes. All the ladies
of the English royal household are ac-
complished in practical things-they
know how to do useful things even il
they are never called upon to perform
them.
The mawkishness of sentimentality
which encourages girls not to do use
Jul, practical and Strengthening labor
is a debasment OF the noblest impulses
of nature. When such an inculca-
ton is encouraged it tends to deprive
girls especially from developing their
mental and physical forces to enerate
them and impair functions which, il :.
trained, might develop the
good and grand in their character.
Work properly performed is a recup.
orator, not an exhauster, of mental
and physical forces. X owledge is
power, is an axiom of trutl Toknow
how to do the useful is an accomplish
ment of which any girl can be proud,
and especially an American girl.

Good Rules,

Somebody who was very much i'm
pressed with the behavior of fami-
ly OF children spoke of it to the host,
who pointed to paper pinned on
the wall, on which were written some
excellent rules. He said he gave each
child who obeyed the rules some re-
ward at the end OF every month.
They were as follows:
Shut every door after you, and with.
out slamming it.
Never shout, jump, or run in the
house.
Never call to persons up stairs, or
in the next rooms, ifyou wish to speak
to them. 90 qhitely where they are.
Always speak kindly and politely
to the servants il you would have
them do tine same to you.
When told TO do or not to do a
thing, by either parent, never ask
why you should or should not do it.
Tell of your own faults and mis-.
doings, not of those of your brothers
and sisters.
Carefully clean the mud or snow
from your boots before entering the
house.
BE prompt at every meal hour.
Never sit down at the table or in
the parlor with soiled hands or tum-
bled hair.
Never interrupt any conversation
bat wait patiently your turn to
speak.
Never reserve good manners for
company, but be equally polite at
Home and abroad.
{ Let your first last and best conf
dent be your mother.

"Yes, promised it to her.
